JIRIS PLAN TO W fE SMALLER SILVER DOLLAR p And Copper By M. F.

Size An Advantage Another advantage of the new dolI lar as contemplated under the pro- ■ J,] would be its size, for it would be slightly larger than the 50-cent f niece and of a thickness 20 per cent less than the half dollar. Were such a piece adopted, Colorado being one of the largest produc- ■ ers of silver in the land Wbuld natur,lly benefit in a proposition whose feature swould offer advantages to to everybody. Manufacture of the coin would necessitate an increased production of silver and this would stimulate mining, put more money into circulation and cause a greater prosperity, the proponents declare. Discusison of the proposal brought out the cumbersomeness of the present “iron man." the disadvantage of whose weight has caused the eastern section of the country to shun it and substitute the dollar bill.

She has not had an illness i confining her to her bed for thrt’-e years ana is up and about the house j daily though she is quite fragile in ap-! pearance. Both of these old people are j supremely blest in thus far having es-1 caped many of the physical and men-1 tai deteriorations which are so often I the tragic accompaniments of advancing years. They eat heartily and sleep well. Both are slightly deaf but neither has to wear glasses except for reading. Mrs. Longenberger reads her church paper. The Christian World regularly. She belongs to the Reformed Church and her husband is a Lutheran though they seldom attend services these days. Both have jiositive convictions that there is a better life beyond the grave. Mrs. Longenberger Is non committal on the subject of the morals of the day, but Mr. Longenberser thinks it's a wicked world we live in. which is more so than when he was young. Walks To Town Charley, his sorrel horse, doesn't set much exercise these days because his master prefers to walk when it is extremely cold to taking out the horse and buggy. Every morning sees the elderly gentleman out on the highway. Frequently he starts for Newton Falls afoot because he doesn’t consid- ’’ ■* walk of two miles intimidating, ">1 usually somebody picks him up and gives him a ride into town. His "mk nowa-days is confined to bringw in coal and wood and other small household chores. Before he retired lorn active busines he was a farmer o hunting and fishing were his great versions when it came to recreation.

Following is the address: "1 shall speak less than five min,- . utes. 1 have one thing to say. 1 | challenge any and every enemy of prohibition to name one restrictive liquor luw anywhere of tiny time which the liquor forces have obeyed. W<> have tried out every milder restriction, every weaker device. We had a law that liquor must not )>e sold to known drunkards. Want that law obeyed? It was not. Wo tried to piotcct our youth by forbidding the sale of liquor to minors. Did the saloons obey that? They did not. We prohibited the sale of liquor on election days, and Sundays and after eleven clock at night. Were any of thise laws obeyed? They were not. The people by overwhelming majorities voted their own states dry or their counties or townships or wards. Did the liquor forces ever respect the will of the people in such cases? Never. They poured in the liquor by every bootlegging device and then sought to break down the restrictive law by the lying claim that they sold more liqnor in dry territory than when they had open saloons. Who in the face of a hundred years of such law defiance can believe that retreat from prohibition to some milder law will give us a law that the liquor forces will obey. They sayTFiat a law which is generally disobeyed breeds disrespect for all law and should be abol- . ished. According to that we can
